Didnt know a 175 SMK could go that fast!!

LOL. Im not sure why my Chrony showed that but it did it again on the next shot. I fiddled with the box and it didnt do it again. I laughed my ass off after the double take I did. Rounds were actually running 2550-2575 with 44.0gr of RL-15 in WCC 09 cases outta my 20" Rem 700.

Yeah, some of my 208 Amax's have hit 3800 fps through my chrony. If the sun shines on the detectors they will mis-read. I have used one of those pop-up picnic covers to block the sun, but it's a pain, so I made a cardboard shade that works very well unless it's really windy.

At that speed you could shoot through the 3 elephants on the Chrono.

Man that's like Mach 8! You could nail things in orbit with those rounds.

At that velocity, you are going to have to replace a barrel for every 10 shot group. LOL.

The weather, clouds and sunlight will affect a chrony...

This would be a likely cause

My CED M2 doesn't work in direct sunlight. I have to shade the sensors with cardboard.

In the shade, it's been flawless.
